I do hope he has grown up, for his own sake. Dooms is absolutely right, he has the physical ability to do whatever he wants at the TE position. It's a shame he's not doing it for us. We need a good TE and he could have been that for us. Didn't happen that way. Costly mistake for us.

Too bad, on our end, that we wasted a 2nd round pick on a backup blocking tight end. I will never understand how we thought that was going to work.

We wanted him to be out there WITH Witten. Not behind him. He would've eventually took Witten's spot but for the time being he was suppose to be another option for Romo to have. And he was his rookie season. For whatever reason after his rookie year he became a primary blocker. And to be honest our running game hasn't been nearly as good since he's been gone.

He has only been gone one season. I think he was a good blocker, but the offensive line had more of an impact of why the Cowboys struggled at running the ball this year.

15 catches in his first 3 games and 40 in the next 13. seems like he wore out his welcome real fast

I noticed in the last couple of games Eli hardly ever looked his way

He was injured a/g Cleveland, played injured through out the season. He was asked to stay in and block more often in some games especially that week 4 game in Philly.

Giant prefer to use the third WR as the third option. TE are the fourth. Giants did not have a number 3 option in week 1-3 and Bennett became the third/second. Nicks was hobbled in week 1, played good in week 2 but Hixon was injured, week 3 Nicks and Hixon were out. ==> reasons for his high output in week 1-3

Eli was in a slump from second half of niner game until the bye.

All contributing factors that the numbers do not tell. He was a solid player for the Giants.
